The BBOS Rendition Of The DingleBerry Logo

With the release of the PlayBook Jailbreak dubbed "DingleBerry" coming soon, I thought I'd make a mockup of what the DingleBerry logo ought to look like. As you can see, nothing other than brown is the perfect color that comes to mind, and, if you can't figure out the rest, I'm not gonna help you out. It's a very bathroom-ie/humor-ie name at core to begin with, so making this logo with a cutesy aspect is no easy task. What do you think of my take on the DingleBerry logo and what would you change? Should the DingleBerry team use it as their official logo?

I think DingleBerry can be a great selling point to a incomplete device. If RIM allows it to slide people can now have hulu, netflix, skype, and many other apps they could not have before. It makes the PlayBook something we can play with instead of just a great multitasking browser with a few nice games.

I think they might be more concerned with the fact that it can actually can be hacked. As far as I know if you steal a password protected blackberry the only thing you can get access to is the microsd by removing it, all other content is out of reach. That's a huge selling point for businesses so I think they were hoping the playbook would be equally invincible.

For example: A consumer is frustrated with some issue on their device, they do a google search and arrive at a forum which has a solution and nice instructions on how to carry it out. The consumer follows those instructions blindly and solves their problem but what they don't know is that the device was rooted as part of the fix. And even if they do know, they don't know what rooting implies.

I'm sure it isn't so transparent with the playbook, but it wasn't on Android at first.

Basically so far these hacks leverage functionality already in the official software to get onto the device; then find some way to trigger the implanted code to do the work. So I'm guessing the Blackberry developer tools will take the place of the Android SDK/iTunes connectivity components in this process. That would make it quite similar with probably the only difference being the handling of the keys/tokens and password the playbook enforces for connectivity. Assuming he hasn't found a way around that.

RIM definitely would not want that. The apps are supposed to be channeled through their version of the the store. I guess so they could better administer it and of course get some commission off the sales
